Wisconsin May Deregulate Funeral Industry

Those in the funeral business in Wisconsin might be in for a tough time.

Wisconsin is one of the few states that regulates its funeral industry. It has a law that does not allow the cemeteries and funeral homes to be operated together. But that law might promulgate this notion for long.

State lawmakers are debating if the funeral industry should be deregulated.

According to an article from twincities.com, “Those working against the bill say it’s a bad idea because it would open the way for some big players to move into the state and drive down costs, only to hike them later.”
